Political Compass Test

"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need is a fundamentally good idea."

Now that's a loaded question pure Marx... Or ehem now Hillary Clinton : she recently said damn near the same thing.. I gues she thinks no one has read "The Communist Manifesto" or "Das Capital". I was force fed them both in college..... yeck!!!!!

Economic Left/Right: 4.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 2.21

With that said i think the whole concept is BS. Im willing to bet im further to the right then GWB and it has me closer to Schroder. Besides im not even sure i accept the premise that the political spectrum is set up that way.

I fully agree that some question are loaded. I found with many of them I would think to myself "It depends on the situation".

Seems to make a good discussion though.

Also there another test in there that I found with quotes. A "who said what test" I found some of the answers surprising. It's titled Iconochasms in the side bar.

Here's one that I like. It matches you up to the Presidential candidates and how much your answers line up with theirs. This was all put together months ago, long before Kerry was even the front runner, so his answers line up with the far left wing liberal he is rather than the centrist he's trying to pretend to be now.
